Fox in the Penalty Area

“…Wang Xianke’s rotten things aside, I think he’s right in saying that he and his team will fight to the end. This is right, of course we will fight to the end. In fact, only from From a football point of view, a similar thing happened in the FA Cup final last season. We defeated Flash Star 2:0 in the first round, but lost 1:4 at the opponent’s home court in the second round. In the end, they lost the FA Cup with a total score of 3:4.

"So last year's FA Cup final was a painful lesson for us, but it was also a valuable experience. Since the flash stars of the Chinese Super League team could do it at that time, why should the current Chinese Super League team Dashun Golden Arrow Can’t do it? I definitely don’t look down on Flashing Stars... But objectively speaking, it was definitely more difficult for Flashing Stars to comeback at home in the second round than what we have to do now, so why they can, we can't you?

"I'm not advocating that the players should do their best for Wang Xianke. The matter of Wang Xianke is inconclusive, and it should not be a factor in the outcome of a football game. Putting aside the personal grievances of the head coach, shouldn't the players of Dashun Golden Arrow Will you fight to the end for your own team and for the Dashun fans who support them?"

This is a commentator's article in a local newspaper in Dashun before the game.

The author hopes to arouse the players' sense of honor, let them fight for the fans and create miracles.

Those things about Wang Xianke can be calculated slowly after the game is won.

I don't know how many Golden Arrow fans who came to the Ocean Stadium to watch the game today came with such thoughts.

※※※

There was a lot of people in the stands of the stadium. The Golden Arrow had just successfully defended an attack by the Flash Star. The fans were cheering for the team's performance.

Wang Xianke stood on the sidelines, waving his arms wildly, and at the same time shouted at the Golden Arrow players on the field: "Press up! Press up! Speed!!"

Ten minutes into the game, Wang Xianke's buttocks did not sit on the coach's chair.

He has been standing on the sidelines, constantly using exaggerated and rich body language and roars to direct the game.

In the previous two games, he had never been so excited at the beginning of the game.

At most, he stood on the sidelines with his hands in his pockets or his chest around his chest, watching the game.

It can also be seen from this that Wang Xianke is really fighting with his back to the wall.

This game is the last of three games, and it is also a key battle for whether he can rewrite his fate.

For this reason, he didn't care about the handsome demeanor anymore.

As long as he can defeat his opponent, reverse and eliminate Flash Star, and let him run naked around the court, he may be happy.

Because the victory of this game may not only affect his reputation, but also his future career...

That conversation with Xue Chaoyu made him deeply realize that his time in Dashun Golden Arrow is over. Even if he can lead the team to reverse the Flash Star, he will not escape the fate of getting out of class.

So the victory in this game is not for Dashun Golden Arrow, but for Wang Xianke's coaching resume to look better. In this way, leaving Dashun Golden Arrow, it is easier to coach other teams.

Even if he wants to leave Dashun Golden Arrow, he will leave as a victor, not a lost dog.

Amidst Wang Xianke's yelling, Golden Arrow's central defender Mao Jun kicked the football forward with a big kick, and then commanded everyone on the back line to press forward.

However, Wang Guangwei headed back his big kick.

Junpei Morikawa received the ball from Wang Guangwei in the middle circle, and he passed the football sideways to Xia Xiaoyu, who replaced Qin Lin in the starting lineup.

Xia Xiaoyu was observing the situation before catching the ball. He noticed that the Golden Arrow had just completed an offensive and defensive transition.

This is where it can be exploited!

So after receiving the pass from Morikawa Junping, he didn't adjust, and directly passed the football to Zhang Qinghuan who was running back.

Zhang Qinghuan accelerated towards the football.

Jin Yong, the center back of the Golden Arrow, rushed forward quickly after seeing this, not wanting Zhang Qinghuan to easily and comfortably get the ball with his back.

But Zhang Qinghuan had no intention of stopping the ball at all.

After he met the football, he knocked the football behind him with the heel of his right foot!

The football rolled from Jin Yong's side to the back of the Golden Arrow line of defense!

It turned out that Hu Lai, who ran with the back line, turned around the moment Zhang Qinghuan passed the ball and rushed forward... When Jin Yong turned his head and saw this scene, he raised his arms reflexively, signaling to the referee and the linesman, Hu Lai Lay offside!

But he immediately saw that Mao Junzheng did not raise his hand with him, but quickly chased after him!

"Hu Lai! Onside! Beautiful!"

Amidst the screams and exclamations above the ocean court, Hu Lai turned around to catch up with the football and waded into the penalty area.

Goalkeeper Zheng Donglin abandoned the goal and attacked.

Hu Lai took a shot!

The football drew a parabola, crossed the desperate palm of goalkeeper Zheng Donglin, and fell towards the goal behind him!

"Spoon lob!!"

This time, Hu Lai didn't even wait for the football to fly into the goal, so he turned around with open arms and ran towards... the golden arrow's coach's bench.

Behind him, the football fell into the goal of the Golden Arrow like a meteorite...

"The goal is scored! The goal is scored!! The game has only started for eleven minutes! Shining Star scored again! The scorer is no surprise... Hu Lai! The goal is not offside! Good goal!"

Hu Lai didn't look back at the direction of the goal. He ran to the coach of the home team and pointed at Wang Xianke again.

Then made a signature celebration.

After finishing the celebration, he turned around and saw Wang Xianke staring at him with a ferocious expression.

But Hu Lai didn't find it scary at all.

He pointed at him instead.

Still want to create a miracle?

Miracles are dead, I tell you!

You are dead today too!

Even Jesus can't save you!

I said!

"How many times have we seen this scene in recent games?" Anton Satellite TV sports channel commentator said with emotion.

He wasn't mocking Wang Xianke, but he was really not sure.

"After this game, Wang Xianke's melon critic will definitely go away! Bah!" Xie Lan sat on the sofa at home, watching Wang Xianke in the TV broadcast, exhaling fragrance and melon seeds.

On the coffee table in front of her, a layer of melon seed skins had already been spread in the dregs tray.

Hu Lixin glanced at his wife who was watching the game with her legs crossed. She was holding a handful of melon seeds with one hand, and kept sending them to her mouth with the other hand.

With a crisp crackling sound, the melon seeds went into my mouth, and the melon seed skins were thrown into the dregs tray.

It was the first time I saw her so relaxed watching her son's game...

It seems that you really don't worry about things changing.

Hu Lixin wasn't worried about any changes. Even if he didn't win this game, he wasn't anxious anymore.

During these eight days, the image of the winner in life is being stripped away little by little.

Seeing Wang Xianke in such a state of distress, Hu Lixin calmed down a lot of emotions.

Fortunately, it wasn't all over at the beginning, otherwise, how could we have seen today's scene?

※※※

When Hu Lai turned to look for his teammates, Wang Xianke's eyes widened with anger were still staring at his back.

Neither side is hiding anymore.

Although the celebration just now was in the previous two games, Wang Xianke had seen it more than once.

But in the two people's eyes just now, Wang Xianke still felt that Hu Lai's momentum was completely different from the previous two games.

He seemed to really want to kill himself.

Oh shit!

Absolutely will not let you get what you want!

Let's see who dies first!

After the flash star scored, the Golden Arrow tried to counterattack.

In fact, it can be seen that they did not completely give up the game, even though they were three goals behind in the total score.

As the former Chinese Super League champions, the Golden Arrow players are still working hard to get the game back on track.

It's just that in the face of Shining Star, who is at the peak both in terms of state and morale, the Golden Arrow has no power--literally powerless.

Because Wang Xianke played the main force in the last league game, the Golden Arrow players with the highest average age in the Chinese Super League did not get enough rest. They played three games in eight days and tried their best in each game. Until the last game, all the Golden Arrow players The physical fitness of the players on the field is almost reaching its limit.

To be honest, if Wang Xianke can really maintain his sanity under Hu Lai's constant stimulation and provocation, then he should resolutely give up the middle league game and let the team's main players take a good rest, so as to ensure that the team can compete in the AFC Champions League. The second round of the quarter-finals was completed in one battle.

Maybe they can really reverse the situation at home and create a miracle.

But it was a pity that Wang Xianke was dazzled by anger, and he was unwilling to admit defeat to Hu Lai in full view—in his opinion, giving up the league and losing to Flash Star was tantamount to admitting defeat to Hu Lai.

As a result, he neither won the league nor dragged down the AFC Champions League.

Now no matter how much he yells and runs around excitedly on the sidelines, the performance of the Golden Arrow players on the court has not improved.

Any ordinary fan can see that the legs of those Golden Arrow players are as if they have been filled with lead, and they can't run.

This situation is especially obvious when they sprint and chase the football with the young players of the Flash Star.

Many fans of the Golden Arrows in the stands saw the players they supported being left behind by the young players of Shining Star. It was really sad.

When the Golden Arrow won the Super League championship, everyone said that the team with the largest average age in the Super League was the most experienced.

What is "an old family is like a treasure".

I'm afraid no one thinks so anymore.

All they can think of is "time is not forgiving".

In football, a competitive sport, youth is the biggest advantage.

No matter how rich the experience is in front of the invincible youth, it seems like a joke...

"To be honest, it's time for the Golden Arrows to be updated. In fact, it should have been done a long time ago, but when Wang Xianke coached the team, he reused veteran players, which led to the team's lack of fresh blood. Outstanding young players I can only go to the Chinese League One team on loan... The blood exchange that should have been carried out after winning the championship has been delayed until now, and now it is really indestructible... It is too cruel to the fans and the players to say goodbye to the veterans in this way gone."

He Feng, a neutral commentator, couldn't help but sigh.

"Regardless of the grievances between Wang Xianke and Hu Lai, he refuses to be replaced, blindly believes in veterans, and his stubbornness has dragged the team to such a situation. He should also be dismissed! In order to achieve results in the AFC Champions League this season, the Golden Arrow They even had to give up the league first—when did the Golden Arrows do such a thing before? Can’t even handle two-lane battles with the majestic Chinese Super League giants? It’s a joke!"
